Monday, March 5 to Wednesday, March 7

I stayed around Ajo a while longer hoping that the little bit of rainfall in the area might result in some flowers blooming in the desert. Monday morning I drive 35 miles south to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Continue reading “Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument”

Since I am hanging around in southern Arizona this winter in order to avoid really cold weather, I’m finding that the pace of life is much slower. After being on the go so much last year, it is a nice change. Continue reading “A slower pace for winter”

After driving down thru Organ Pipe and realizing how far it is from Why, I revise my plans for the next couple weeks. Its 60 miles round trip down to the areas where the scenic drives and trails are. Too far to drive back and forth. So I decide to spend a week or ten days in the Ajo area and then move down to the campground in the park. Continue reading “A new camp – this is more like it!”

February 10, Saturday

This morning I get on the road at 10am PT, but since I’m heading east, after about 10 miles I enter mountain time zone, and promptly lose an hour. 😦 There are a couple things I need to pick up at Fry’s so I exit at Fortuna Road. The Shell station next door has a dump station and is my next stop. The fee is a very reasonable $5.00. When leaving camp I had gone west two miles on I-8 to the rest stop which has potable water and filled my fresh water tank. So I am set for my next camp.

January 29 to February 10

I’m running low on staple grocery items, so Monday morning I hitch up and head for Yuma. Yuma has a resident population of close to 100,000. It has a nice selection of stores, restaurants, etc. When the winter snowbirds arrive, there are about 300,000 people in the area. Continue reading “Taking care of business in Yuma”

This morning I bid farewell to my friends Scott and Cindy as we depart our camp in Quartzite for our next destinations. I am headed south on Hwy 95 towards Yuma, but will stop back at Kofa NWR for a few days before hitting the city. Continue reading “Chilling Out Back at Kofa”

Tuesday, January 9

After finishing up in Tucson I head west on I-8. I’m bound for the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge to meet up with some members of the RVForum.net. Kofa NWR is roughly 50 miles north of Yuma on Hwy 95. It’s about 3pm when I get on the road, so I won’t make it there tonight. Continue reading “Camping at Kofa and the Quartzsite RV Show”

Welcome to my blog!

After selling my Colorado home in June 2017, I purchased my Nash 17k travel trailer. I took delivery on June 28th and that began my adventure as a full time RVer. I have always loved traveling the back roads and byways and exploring small towns. Now I can do that to my hearts content! You are invited to travel along with me, your comments are welcome!

Along with me on the journey is Misty, my Maine Coon cat.
